Jenkins is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Newport County finished 20th of 24 · a lower-table side
3.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (20th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 67.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 30.1, Jenkins carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League Two (top 34%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Newport County finished 20th of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
